While Ireland are not part of this year’s ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup in India and Sri Lanka, they are hoping to use the series against England in 2026 to help their push of qualifying for the 2029 event.
“It is good to be able to announce these International Women’s Championship ODI fixture dates so early as it helps the team plan the rest of their summer in 2026,” Ireland director of cricket Richard Holdsworth said.
“These are significantly important matches as they are part of the 2029 ODI World Cup qualification structure. We are also pleased to be based in the Midlands and happy that all venues are so close to each other.”
